For a few weeks now, every other day I started getting messages about the rear child security lock failure. Usually they would disappear after stopping and locking the car. Then yesterday both center screens went black and rebooted and this happened for half an hour after which it stopped and functioned for the rest of the trip. The lock error appeared intermittently in the dashboard. The IIDTool today showed the following errors that were all cleared:

Quick update: As the only repair I've ever undertaken on the car was on the rear right door, I removed the door card, cleaned all the connectors using contact cleaner, and reattached them. Especially the ones leading to the lock module. Since completing this intervention, the error hasn't reappeared.

I spoke too soon. Today, the rear child security failure message appeared again, bringing back the usual issues—central screens restarting and turn signals not producing their typical clicking sounds. Upon reaching my destination, I disconnected the connectors from the module on the door card, but the errors remained, even as I drove around for a while with the connectors unplugged. Later, when I tried to lock the car, it proved impossible. I left it unlocked for a few minutes, and when I returned, pressing the remote triggered the alarm. The only way to silence it was by sticking the key the slot by the steering wheel. When attempting to start the car, I encountered a steering lock message multiple times before finally getting it to start.

Removing the rear left door card and disconnecting the connectors had no effect on the rebooting screens or the lock error. It seems like it’s time to visit the dealer... |
